The region known as the "Línea Sur" of the province of Río Negro is an area that covers the center and south of that province, occupying about 60% of the total area. This region has been punished climatically and also forgotten, especially in the last decades of the twientieh century. As this region, there also also other areas within the country which are in similar situation of precariousness. Together with the Center of Strategic Studies for Sustainable Development (CEEDS) of the Graduate School of the Instituto Tecnológico de Buenos Aires (ITBA), emerged the initiative to develop and establish a methodology that, through the assembly of a scenario simulation tool, could provide improvements to the value chains in those regions.
The main focus of this work is found in the assembly of a methodology that can be replicated in different regions, that can be replicated in different regions, that can be independent of the value chain to improve and that can involve various different actors that participate in such chain of value. In order to achieve this objective, it was also used a scenario simulation tool applying the cross-impact method, in order to offer perspectives on how the main variables will evolve in the short and medium term, allowing to elaborate strategies to drive and obtain a desired future.
